Opis

This volume aims to provide a definitive description of the various models of Mission Operations Systems (MOS) available to the Project Manager, the Operations Manager, or to the student, to aid in the understanding and design of a cost-effective mission operations system for future unmanned, remote sensing missions, either Earth-observing or planetary. The text provides an account of the Mission Operations Systems design process and of general principles of the designs themselves. Professionals designing a Mission Operations System, and students of remote sensing or other spacecraft missions who need to know how one is organized and run, should find it useful. NASA's program, the Magellan mission to Venus, is described as a detail MOS case study. The principles expressed in this book can be applied to all types of scientific remote sensing missions to effect an efficient, comprehensive and cost-effective design.
